President Death
 
Mark off another net full of murders for President Death, George Bush. The
horrible attacks in Turkey are yet another result of Bush" political savy.

Meanwhile, popularity for Bush continues to dwindle. No worry. What are the
chances that Bush can even spell "dwindle?"

In fact, the low point was a couple months ago, and the current
approval rating trend is up. I just saw a graph of it in another
news story a few days ago--not this one. Bush's follows the normal
presidential four-year cycle.

Bush job-approval typical of third year
By James G. Lakely
THE WASHINGTON TIMES

President Bush's latest job-approval ratings are mixed, but still
place him close to the positions shared by the last four presidents
at this point in their first term.

A USA Today-CNN-Gallup poll released yesterday showed that 50
percent approve of the job Mr. Bush is doing as president and 47
percent disapprove, both numbers matching the worst showing for him
in each category in the Gallup Poll since he entered office. The
poll was conducted Nov. 14-16, among 1,004 adults.

However, a poll conducted by ABC News and The Washington Post put
Mr. Bush's approval rating at 57 percent yesterday.

The ABC News poll has never measured Mr. Bush's job approval at
lower than 53 percent, which is greater than the lowest
job-approval rating of the preceding four presidents. President
Clinton's lowest rating was 43 percent, the first President Bush's
lowest was 33 percent, President Reagan never dipped below 42
percent, and President Carter bottomed out at 28 percent.

Steven Hess, a presidential scholar at the Brookings Institution,
said a job-approval rating in the 50s at this point in a
presidential term is a good sign for an incumbent.

"He's pretty much stabilized and it's at about the low 50s, and
that's a pretty good sign for getting re-elected," Mr. Hess said.
"The poll ratings will probably jump up or down on what the morning
headlines are when the poll is taken, but by and large, the good
economic news will drive his ratings up."

The U.S. Department of Commerce announced Oct. 30 that the nation's
gross domestic product grew at 7.2 percent from July through
September, the greatest one-quarter jump in economic growth in 19
years. But the president's job-approval rating, according to
Gallup, has still declined six points in four weeks.

Frank Newport, editor in chief of the Gallup Poll, said Mr. Bush's
"general trajectory [this year] has been down" since Iraqi dictator
Saddam Hussein was overthrown in the spring.

"That produced what we call a rally effect, putting his approval
rating at 71 percent," Mr. Newport said. "He stabilized in
September and has been in the same range since."

Mr. Newport cautioned against reading too much into one week of
polling, saying one can't judge the depth of the public's opinion
of a president until trends are revealed over several weeks.

"We'll see if it goes down farther than this," Mr. Newport said.
"Bush hasn't continued to go down as long and as fast as his father
did, at least not at the moment."

Allan Lichtman, presidential scholar and historian at American
University, said Mr. Bush's approval numbers have been linked to
the public's confidence in "his ability to battle evil worldwide."
That confidence has been "shaken" by almost daily troop deaths in
Iraq, he said.

"Bush is coming down to more normal numbers, as you'd expect," Mr.
Lichtman said. "[Iraq] is now a source of doubt for the American
people."

If the economy continues to improve, however, Mr. Bush will see his
numbers rise and it will be tough for any of the Democratic
candidates for president to beat him in 2004.

"They can weaken him on foreign policy, but only the economy will
make him vulnerable to one of these Democrats," Mr. Lichtman said.

Mr. Bush's average approval rating in the Gallup poll is 66.2
percent. Only President Kennedy's 70 percent career job-approval
rating was higher than Mr. Bush's.

Liberals like Bobsprit are desperate. They don't realize
they sound their own death knell with their constant
spewing of hatred and lies. They actually think people
are dumber than they are and will believe the lies and
hype.

If Mr. Bush doesn't win by a landslide in 2004 then I'll
eat my hat.

It's just that I favor American lives over fake wars and you don't.

You favor lies, slander and sedition over American
lives. You delight in American lives being lost. You
have an enjoyable day when you can count many
deaths to use as fodder in the Bobsprit trough
of hate where you and the other liberal swine
gorge yourselves in an orgy of bitterness and
shame about your ideologies being rejected by
the voting public. Rather than suggest any viable
alternatives, you and your ilk seek only to slander
those who are actually engaged in the pursuit
of viable alternatives. You travel a path of
desperate destruction and immoral acts.

Yep, the best thing that can happen for Bush is for more lives to
be lost in Iraq.
He can be strong and resolute.

Oz1...of the 3 twins.


Bush's approval rating is about 10% higher in the military than in
the general public--just a little higher (than civilian) with the
enlisted men and women, and much higher with officers (around 2/3
approval). Somewhere, I read that it averages out to about 10%
higher than civilian presidential approval (for Bush) among the
military that vote. That would make it about 60+% at present.

The military knows whether they're dying in vain, or not. They
still support Bush.

I will supply the salt.

Bush never actually won the last election.

His lies and propaganda during this current imperialistic action have
awakened the sleeping masses (non voters) that will be registering in
mass with the Democratic party next year.

Limbaugh, Hannity, and Savage will not be able to re-elect him.

Michael Moore's new book is #4 at Amazon.

I am at chapter 4 of 10 (pirated mp3 audiobook) right now and Mr. Bush
has a lot of explaining to do.

Sure all the dolts in all the fly over states will vote for GW but all
the big industrial states of the northeast and midwest plus the left
coast will insure a Democratic victory. And any Democrat will do for
most will be voting against GW not for the Democratic candidate.
